Paris

Hi from Paris. We flew direct from chch to paris stopping briefly at Singapore and Frankfurt on route. We arrived feeling quite tired after some 30 hours of travel. The weather in the past few days has been really stunning which had enabled my family and i to take in all the touristy sites. Yesterday i watched the Paris marathon and felt envious of all the excitement the runners gave as they ran past us at the 5km mark. We have used the underground trains (the Metro) to get around this amazing city. Tomorrow we fly up to Instanbul to begin our tour of Gallipoli and Turkey. I will blog some pictures of Galliploi and send Mrs Fuller some video to show at assembly. All the best. GW This is the famous Effel Tower and today we waited over two hours to get to the top. Amazing views!
